David Administers Justice and Kindness Justice and Kindness 2 Samuel 9:1-7, 9-12 “And David said, Is there yet any that is left of the house of Saul, that I may shew him kindness for Jonathan’s sake?” (II Samuel 9:1). We are like Mephibosheth, weak and broken, and yet God has a place for us at His table, regardless of our flaws...

As we study the life of David, although he was known as a man of war (see II Samuel 17:7-8), we learn that he was also a kindhearted king and one who ruled with justice (see II Samuel 8:15). This week’s lesson reveals the kindness of David shown to one of King Saul’s sons, Mephibosheth, which makes it easy for us to understand why Samuel said that David was a man after God’s own heart (see I Samuel 13:14; Acts 13:22). The only thing recorded in this chapter is the kindness David showed to Jonathan’s son because of the love he and Jonathan had for each other (see I Samuel 18:1-3: II Samuel 1:26).
